I'm currently reviewing another GAR, but I would still like to take this one for a review as well. Just please put this page into your watchlist while I finish that. In the meantime, here are some preliminary notes to get you started:


 * The reception section could use some thematic organization for cohesion, and perhaps some quotes can even be paraphrased; as such, WP:RECEPTION offers great tips and examples on how to achieve this. Also, make sure you've read the reviews so you can figure out the tenets or what critics generally have picked up on; don't just simply write stuff like Jay Bobbin of Zap2it rated the film 3/4 stars, especially if the critic doesn't expound on it. I expect to see the same result as those in the examples in the guideline. Moreover, unlike video game articles, film articles don't actually require a table listing scores a film received from critics, everything has to be discussed in the prose.
 * Some minor corrections in the infobox entries: Nic. tenBroek should be corrected as "Nic TenBroek", running time is 97 mins, Star Encore is the only distributor, and TCEP production is the only production company (Source: Variety review)
 * As of April 2024, the documentary never received a stand-alone Blu-ray release. This implies (in Wikipedia's voice, no less) that the documentary ought to be released on Blu-ray soon. In any case, we may as well get rid of it for the time being if an obligatory Blu-ray release remains to be seen.
 * Speaking of which, Blu-ray.com is not a reliable source, as per WP:RSP/BLURAY; however, DVD Talk is, and they have a review of the movie: https://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/review/17781

I'll come back to you as soon as I finish the other GAR. Thank you for your patience. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 15:46, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much for that review. I have a question, Blu-Ray also includes reviews from its site. Should I remove that review as well?  Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚 16:39, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
 * And adding to that review, the composer actually spells his name like that, per Nic. tenBroek's official website.  Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚 16:41, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
 * And finally, just to play it safe, I Replaced Blu-ray.com with High-Def Digest, which also had a review and a release date for Bullitt. I also reorganized the reviews (per the notes).  Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚

Review

 * Thank you so much for the review. Since I was the one who improved the article five-fold, there were a lot of shortcomings that you were able to find. I’ll sit on this article for a bit and work on some copy edits. In the future, I’ll consult with the other wikipedians before I nominate any more articles.  Yoshiman6464 ♫🥚 17:09, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
